A.) How can a person of faith believe or not believe in “atheistic evolution”? In my point of view, I think atheistic evolution is wrong in so many ways, but I can see where the theory comes from.

But also, in another perspective, if one believes in God then they might believe something

What Is God?
The idea that God is an oversized white male with a flowing beard who sits in the sky and tallies the fall of every sparrow is ludicrous. But if by "God" one means the set of physical laws that govern the universe, then clearly there is such a God. This God is emotionally unsatisfying...

The Argument of Evil
I will argue in the following paper that the existence of a perfectly benevolent, omnipotent, omniscient God comes with the existence of evil. God is not a micromanager; he gave us free will for a reason. I will argue that it is our decision to create evil and not his doing. In order for good to exist evil has to exist. I'll start off by saying that very few people actually believe that God is,

God Is Pro-Life
The reason I am pro-life, and oppose abortion, is because GOD is pro-life, and opposes abortion.

I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well." God then forbids the taking of innocent life [viz. a life not

So, if indeed the United States is one nation under God, why do we continue to
